Just win...Can you do that for us Clippers???????
Bobcats-Clippers Preview
By TAYLOR BECHTOLD
Posted Dec 31 2013 4:22PM
Looking to bounce back from their most lopsided loss of the season, the Los Angeles Clippers should have a good chance to get back on track at home after their winning streak there was snapped.
The first-place Clippers seek their sixth straight victory over the Charlotte Bobcats, who will try to avoid a 17th consecutive road loss to a Western Conference opponent Wednesday night.
Los Angeles (21-12) saw its five-game run at Staples Center end as Phoenix closed to within a half-game of the Pacific Division leaders with....

Time to get back on track. Good energy right from the start is what is needed.

Happy New Year, everyone! Let's hope the Clippers didn't party hardy last night and they actually come out with a vengeance at tonight's game. They need to restore order in the Clipper universe and start the new year with a banging win. Crossing my fingers they win this game and not play down to the Bobcats' level.

This needs to be a statement game for the Clippers.. If they don't come out and dominate than something is wrong with this team. Right now we look no better than we were last year..

Urban Dictionary:

nut up

(v.) To gird ones loins. Nutting up entails using one's proverbial balls or "nuts". Mainly used on the US west coast, it's the sister (brother?) term to cowboy up.

I better nut up or I'm gonna get my ass kicked in this fight.

These Bobcats are surprisingly better than I thought they would be. They're up 4 already. Ugh. At least Clippers have made a couple of 3s so that's encouraging.

It's great CP is being aggressive early in the game. I hope this bodes well for the rest of the game. Need this win!

Blake is OUT OF CONTROL tonight. he needs to settle down and stop forcing it. He should no he is not gonna get any calls from Violent Palmer. He gets mad at a no call doesn't hustle back and compromises the defense giving up a three to Tolliver. FOCUS !!

I DO NOT want to see Blake regress on his FT shooting. Also not in love with his body language right now. Not sure what's going on.

He didn't like that foul call on him and then he turned it over and he seems really pissed. Doc needs to shake him up and tell him to get his head sorted.

I don't know, they seemed to be a bit cautious or something. Maybe they are smarting from that Suns loss?

I hope one of CP3's new year resolutions is to be more aggressive...

Our trigger happy wings who barely can shoot 3s will be the death of us. Stop shooting so many damn 3s! Its been a consistent problem
